Prelude to PLO (1949 - 1959) ๐ŸŒ

  • Post Arab-Israeli War, 1949: Palestinians frequently crossed into Israel. Why? ๐Ÿ‘ž To retrieve properties they'd lost.

  • Tension Rises: Some Palestinians took it a step further with armed raids, sometimes ending in bloodshed against the new Jewish inhabitants.

  • Israel's Reaction: The Israeli Defence Force (IDF) was not one to sit idle - they retaliated, and fiercely.

Real-world Example: It's like when two siblings fight over a toy. One might take the toy, and the other retaliates by taking it back or maybe even breaking it!

Enter Fatah (1959) ๐Ÿš€

  • Introducing... Fatah: A new group of Palestinian fighters. The name is a fun linguistic trick! In Arabic, it spells out the initials for ‘The Movement for the Liberation of Palestine’, but also means 'victory' when spelled backwards.

  • Leader of the Pack: The man at the helm? Yasser Arafat. His dream? A Palestinian state.

Formation of the PLO (1964) ๐ŸŒ

  • A Big Gathering: Arab leaders met in Cairo and established the PLO.

  • Mission Statement: Unite all Palestinians and reclaim their land.

  • Who’s the Big Player in PLO? It's our friend, Fatah!

Real-world Example: Think of the PLO as an Avengers-like team, with Fatah being Iron Man - a key member with its own story.

Guerrilla Actions (1965-1967) ๐Ÿดโ€โ˜ ๏ธ

  • Picking Up the Pace: Fatah launched several guerrilla attacks against Israel.
  • Who Had Their Back? Arab states bordering Israel, especially Syria.
